VMware NSX to Elevate IT Efficiency and Application Continuity of Exostar

PALO ALTO, CA: VMware, a provider of cloud and virtualization services has declared that Exostar- a developer of identity access management, collaboration and supply chain management solution, has selected its NSX network virtualization platform to increase security and IT efficiency for its solutions and customers.

By leveraging VMware NSX for its hybrid cloud, Exostar has built multiple software defined data centers in the U.S. architecture with a heterogeneous mix of Cisco and Juniper Networks networking and security hardware. The solution has enabled Exostar to decrease the time it takes to bring up new services and to simplify its network architecture without sacrificing performance or security as well as improves network management and troubleshooting.

“We have been able to improve the overall visibility into our infrastructure, streamline processes, and reduce expenses by moving to software-defined infrastructure for networking and security services,” says Raj Dasgupta, Director of IT at Exostar.

With VMware NSX and micro-segmentation, Exostar can isolate and segment different tenants within the same cloud infrastructure. Micro-segmentation keeps any potential attacking agents from moving east to west between VMs and accessing unauthorized applications or information.
